The film is based on the true story of Michael Larson and Hauser will be joined in the film by Walton Goggins (Fall) AND Johnny Knoxville (Donkey).
Set in 1984, Press your luck follows Larson, “an unemployed truck driver from Ohio who entered the game show ‘Press Your Luck’ hiding a secret: the key to infinite amounts of money.
“But his streak is threatened when executives in the control room begin to uncover his true motives.”

The film will be directed by Samir Oliveros from a screenplay written in collaboration with Maggie Briggs (Land of joy). Oliveros said in a statement: “I kept having this recurring dream about a man with a white beard. I couldn’t figure it out until I came across his face on a VHS tape I found at a thrift store.
He added: “That’s how I found out about Michael’s story. During our next meeting he told us that if we made the film in time for the 40th anniversary of his company, he would guide us in the right direction. I’m happy we were able to make this happen with the support of such incredible partners.”
Protagonist Pictures CEO Dave Bishop said: “Samir has crafted a unique and elegant telling of the incredible true story of a down-on-his-luck man gaming the system. We couldn’t be happier to be working with the talented Samir and our friends at Fabula and Plenty Good.”
Freedman, founding partner of Plenty Good, added: “We’re attracted to films that don’t perform well. Whether it’s an unruly character, an unconventional structure or an irreverent style, our films defy what is expected. Michael’s courageous behavior inspired us and we hope it inspires you too.”
